Thanks, Paul. It's a pleasure of the year.

You guys are doing such good work. I've been looking forward to this interview since the moment you all pitched me. I'm like, yes. Get them on the show. Like, right now, so few. I'm thrilled that you're here.

No. Thank you so much for having us here. Thank you so much for doing the show. I think I told you this beforehand, but You know, when we started in this walk of life, I it would have been really wonderful and comforting to have you know, a a series like this, and so I'm just grateful to be able to contribute something meaningful.

We're glad to hear. So before we get into all the awesome work that you're doing in the Aikido labs and how you built it, how you funded it, and all the things that we do on this show. Tell us a little bit about, like, what would somebody need to know? Like, what what's some of your background that is relevant to launching a keto lap?
